thank you so much. and you're probably right. the waiting is always the worst. thanks for all the good wishes.

if you need any help, let me know. I am a self taught photoshopper myself. well, and someone gave me a book, that Id be more than happy to lend to you!

Lol last month was mad busy for me and whenever I looked at the calender I said to myself "wow fuck this month..."

thanks for your good wishes. I really appreciate it.

yeah, the next couples weeks are going to be insane for me. and both sides of my family are coming to town, which i know is going to be totally exhausting

6-8? It seems like a long time, but it will fly by like ::: me snapping my fingers::: that!

did you tell me you thought 'possums were cute?

this link's for you

that's great. yeah, she's looked up to me a lot, so in a lot of cases, I feel like I have to have a balance between protecting her and letting her find her own way, but I'm glad that she felt comfortable opening up to me. and I am glad I can continue to be a resource so to speak. we've always been very close so it's really pretty cool

Innit? We've been checking out (virtually) some reasonably priced land in the Oakland hills....I'm sure there's a catch of some kind, probably that it would take a whole lot of work to be buildable. But who knows, maybe in a year or two we'll join you on that side of the bay?

unnecessary?

i think they're just meant for fun...

yay for surprise visits. my brother surprised me by visiting my freshman year of college. so cool.
and yeah, the dropped charge thing plus the amazing weather made yesterday one of the best days in a while. seriously, i could not afford to pay court fees/fines right now, so it was most excellent that it was thrown out. all in all though it was pretty efficient yesterday (I found out my case had been thrown out 20 minutes after I arrived), so that too was good.
all in all, this whole process has been really easy. I hear all kinds of bad things about our justice system, but the police were nice and respectful and processed me quickly, and my case was thrown out efficiently as well. almost restores my faith in those things.

and yes, the sounds. very good pick. I would love to see them someday. they rock.

oh, I absolutely agree. and like I said, now I'm free to do it again! (just not at the same location, as that would look bad. and I'm pretty sure the manager might actually strangle me.)

Check.

Thanks for coming out the other night. Good to see you! You have a good time?

I switched to Macs almost 3 years ago and haven't looked back. one of the best things I've ever done for myself. I seriously can't recommend Macs enough. I say take the leap.

I'm a fan of macs as well...a little hard to get used to at first, but now it's fine.

as far as my stress goes...I had 6 people quit or give notice in the last month leaving me trying to juggle 12 empty shifts per week. I worked from 6:15am to 5:30pm today.

What a pain.... Good luck...
